I have no experience with septic tanks so I can't answer your question. However, I would suggest that you contact Summit Brands at 888-476-6688 or visit their website at www.summitbrands.com I hope this helps and that you get the information you need.

I have a septic tank and used it. Although I've only used it a couple times (once per toilet), I plan to only use it sparingly if ever again. I think plain old baking soda and vinegar would work just as well and be much healthier for your septic system though.

We don't have a septic system, so I cannot answer your question.Check with your contractor. Good luck.

It is not recommended for septic systems. Florida has banned it specifically for that. But... Roebic does make a septic safe root killer, that I think is called K77. It is advertised specifically for main line and septic systems.

Nope, I have a septic and I checked this too... On the bottle it says Septic Safe! I'll post a picture in a second.http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B0047528HM/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_0?ie=UTF8&index;=0

The package says yes, but I don't have a septic tank so I have not tested this claim.

Other "septic safe" powders used to clog our constantly clog our septic system. Since we switched to Charlie's soap we have had much less cloging issues with the septic. I would say about 3/4 less septic issues. Also I do believe the regular size can is labeled septic safe. Additionally, this soap leaves our front loader free of that disgusting film left behind by other leading brands.

I checked their website and it says, "Yes. Dishwasher Magic will not harm septic systems, plumbing, or the appliance in any way."

I only put the cleaner in the toilet tank. In that way, I could observe the cleanliness of the tank. It is composed of magnets. It is chemical free. The septic system should not be affected. However, I am not a plumber.

My main answer is I don't know. But, I have a strong suspicion that it would be safe. Because it's biodegradable, it will break down easily. The info I was able to find about this matter also said it was safe. It's just hard to know for certain. If I were you, I would definitely use it with a septic system but, again, I'm not 100% certain. Hope that helps!!

Yes it is. We have a septic tank system, and I've used this product for years. No problems.

I don't know, as I had installed at a country home with a septic and that was not an option. However, my son who is my contractor and installer, he should be able to tell me so I will ask and get back to you.

Sorry, Marge, we don't have a septic system so I can't answer your question. You might want to contact the manufacturer. My guess would be that Charlie's Soap is safe for septic systems because it's made with natural ingredients BUT I wouldn't want to mislead you. Catherine

Not at all. I have been using it over a year now with a septic system. If anything, it is better for it as you aren't releasing detergent into it.

As a Civil Engineer I specify this for sewage pumping chambers as a high water alarm if the pump fails. It goes in the pump tank, not the septic tank.

I would not think this would be something you would use this for. Unit is very small and I recall you need to hold this device very close (a few inches away) from area being sanitized.
